Shia is very knowledgeable and meticulous in his dealings, especially with complex situations. I have personally benefited from his absolute dedication to the welfare of his clients, seeing him go above and beyond the call of duty. His expertise in the field helped us avoid a problematic issue. Not one of the attorneys involved had understood the important aspects as he did.
Reb Shia is a caring and well-thought-out professional who, through his unique experience, guides people through the difficult maze of dealing with real estate in Israel. Well-meaning, naïve people who dream of owning a piece of Israel are unprepared for the wolves in sheep’s clothing who easily manipulate them into one-sided deals or situations without the careful, experienced, and wise guidance of Reb Shia, who has just about seen it all.
He is a true mensch and a ben Torah, and he really cares about you. He negotiates for you as if he was negotiating for his own deal.

It has been a pleasure to collaborate with R’ Shia on projects that provide direction and inspiration for Yidden to come home to Eretz Yisrael. I found him and his team to be passionate, professional, honest, and reliable. I can confidently recommend them as excellent partners and would readily send homebuyers to them as well.
Rabbi Yoel Berman
I’ve been very happy working with them. The best thing a client from far away could get is to really have someone they could trust and depend on. The Getter Group knows what’s going on, they’re very organized, they’re professional and knowledgeable and kind… It’s great to work with them.
Michal Abukarat
The Getter Group gave us the confidence right away and got us a significant discount. From the beginning, we knew how much they could help. … We definitely recommend — being olim chadashim not understanding the culture, not having the Hebrew — not trying to do this alone. Being nowhere near this industry, starting with zero knowledge, find someone to help!
The Getter Group will stay in the picture for the next four or five years. We won’t have to find someone to help us or answer questions. They already have the contacts. Hearing their professionalism, hearing their stories, their many years of experience, hearing what they can do for you, that speaks for itself.

I … highly recommend using The Getter Group…. They go above and beyond what any other agents do, and they provide an excellent service. After closing on the deal and shaking hands, Mr. Getter … felt like someone who was helping his friends actualize their dream of owning a small piece of Eretz Yisrael.

Yisrael Fromer
I hardly ever write recommendations … [But] I’m going to make an exception to my rule and endorse The Getter Group. Shia and his team are professional and get the job done. Other than Shia, I’ve yet to find a chareidi management company run the way Oxford Street and New York City firms are run. I can testify that this company is dedicated to making their clients happy.
Rabbi Issamar Ginzberg

We looked for several years at many projects with Mr. Getter. When we finally found the apartment in the project that we liked, he evaluated it and negotiated many different aspects and details of the deal.
He and his assistant were absolutely fabulous. They were always there for us — patient, pleasant, dependable, knowledgeable, and supportive. Even after the purchase, after we paid them, there were many issues with the project, and they helped us cheerfully through the five long years of the build-out and completion of the apartment.
They were with us every single step of the way, going to meetings to negotiate with the builder, and dealing with mortgages. We can’t even tell you how many things they helped us with and continue to help us with. They told us, “This is part of what we do.”

Thank you for reaching out with recommendations regarding our mortgage and payment schedule. It’s saving us money in interest and inflation, which I of course appreciate.
But even more importantly, I’m impressed that you were proactive in thinking of me and approaching me with this idea, even though we’d technically already moved on from this stage of the purchase process. This is exactly why I’m happy to refer you to my friends!

Hiring Shia and The Getter Group turned out to be a great decision. Shia gave invaluable advice, acted with impeccable honesty and integrity, and his team took care of every last detail with effectiveness and skill. It was so valuable to us that even if I lived locally, I would hire him again without hesitation.

We regard the services of The Getter Group to be excellent. We have been using your services for at least 10 years, and everything has always been most professional, with no surprises.

Working with The Getter Group is always a good experience. I’m happy to send clients to them and happy to work with their clients. It’s an excellent partnership and a professional one.
Motty Goldis
Reb Shia’s style, approach, and strategy to make things succeed for the benefit of the client is to be admired. He managed every aspect of the purchase with … professionalism, at all times protecting our interest. From locating the property to dealing with the seller and finalizing the sale, everything was conducted in an exemplary fashion.
This entire transaction was like a walk in the park.
Samuel Herbst

In a large part due to the excellent work done by Shia Getter and his team, many of my clients have seen tremendous success in purchasing, renovating and managing their assets in Israel. Especially in the heimishe world, the professionalism of The Getter Group is unparalleled. If you own or are considering buying real estate in Israel, you should sit down with Shia right away and he will guide you with trust and responsibility.

I have been in real estate brokerage business in the USA for over 30 years. I met with Shia Getter and a member of his staff, and I can say that he knows how to protect you, the buyer.
The Getter Group represents the buyers. You will save money, heartache, and everything in between.
Rabbi Yehuda Shain

Partnering with The Getter Group is a true pleasure. They’re professional, responsive, and patient, and they work fast. Participating in their conferences has been an excellent experience as well.
Zalman Black
I like Shia Getter. He’s efficient, honest, and dependable. It’s not easy to do business in Eretz Yisrael, and I am glad to have Shia at my side. He’s truthful, and that’s the most important ingredient.
Rabbi Schmiel Dovid Friedman
New York
Shia is phenomenal. I don’t know what we would have done without his guiding hand throughout the process of purchasing a home. He ensured that we were protected from predatory business tactics and made the whole process go smoothly. He was always available to talk with us whenever we needed him. I give Shia a very strong and confident recommendation.

No one of the attorneys involved had understood the important aspects as he did. I am eternally grateful and wish him continued success
Atara Malach

It has been said, “It is not what you know, it is who you know.” I can attest that this was absolutely the case when I was seeking to purchase an apartment in Israel from overseas. Baruch Hashem, I was recommended to The Getter Group by several acquaintances, and it was the best decision I had made!
From the very first phone conversation until the actual handing over of the keys, you and your office staff have guided me and advocated for me in a most caring and professional way. … Your willingness to negotiate with the builder and represent me when necessary demonstrated your overarching concern to provide the utmost support throughout the purchasing process.
Deciding what and where to buy when purchasing a home is never easy. It is most certainly more difficult when buying from a builder located across the ocean and in a language that is unfamiliar. The myriad of choices and bureaucratic barriers one needs to overcome can be overwhelming and frightening. Having a representative such as The Getter Group to advocate on my behalf has positively reversed the purchasing process into an experience that is both encouraging and exciting.
Mrs. Nechama Gold
Ramat Beit Shemesh, Israel
It is my pleasure to give the strongest recommendation, without reservation, concerning Mr. Shia Getter. I came across Mr. Getter when reading an article he authored in one of the Jewish newspapers, which echoed some of my own sentiments concerning Israeli real estate. Namely, that the culture of business, in particular real estate in the Middle East, is such that if someone is foolish enough to give away their money, someone is smart enough to take it.
With that in mind, when it came time to purchase a second investment property in Jerusalem I contacted Mr. Getter. He was able to help me in deciding on a property, as well as negotiate an excellent and fair deal, which enabled us to save as much as $50,000. In addition, he helped us secure a mortgage for the property at an excellent rate, as well as helping with the contracts … and interfacing with the lawyers, designers, developers, etc.
Dr. Jonathan Lewin
Teaneck, New Jersey
I’ve been working with Shia on different projects for several years now. On one deal alone, having Reb Shia’s buyers’ brokerage service saved me NIS 175,000 by negotiating a deal that I would not have been able to get without his help. I admire his professionalism, and his results speak for themselves. It is my pleasure to recommend him.
